Me and Bro (jrich906) kick'n it.

“ Work like you don’t need the money,
love like you’ve never been hurt,
and dance like no one is watching.”
Satchel Paige

"The ultimate weakness of violence is that it
is a descending spiral, begetting the very thing it
seeks to destroy. Instead of diminishing evil, it multiplies it."
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Nature's law affirm instead of prohibit. If you violate
her laws, you are your own prosecuting
attorney, judge, jury, and hangman.
Luther Burbank

Little 'bout me

Born and raised in the inner city of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (read: ghetto). But spent most of the summers in the country with my grandparents. Where I developed my love for nature and football (Americano)

Then at 13, I moved with my Mom and Bro to San Jose, California where my (now) step-dad lived. Here I was exposed to all four courners of the world's cultures in my own backyard. I love it. Then off to College in Santa Barbara - I attended UCSB (on the 5 year program)

it wasn't until years after graduating that I discovered the love of real traveling. I only wish I was able to start this earlier.

Hippies Jazz 2 House

Music has always been an valuable part of my life. I have an eclectic taste in music that probably stems from the many different cultures that I've surrounded myself with. In the past year, I have seen Dave Matthews, Jack Johnson, Ben Harper, Taj Mahal, Branford Marsalis, Deep Dish, Oakenfold to name a few. And have thoroughly enjoyed every one...

In Cold Blood

Brother Fishing

Since about '95 I have been collecting and raising different species of Boa-constrictors (all Captive bread). In the photo, I am holding my male Dumeril Ground Boa found in Madagascar.

I also have a Female Dumeril boa, Colombian Boa, and a Hogg Island Boa. Hogg Island, or Cayos Cachinos Islands, is located off the coast of Honduras. The Hogg Island Boas are assumed to be extinct from their native islands. Although there is a group of individuals who are propagating the species further in captivity. Also in the past I have owned a Peruvian and a Brazilian Rainbow Boa.

Boas are known to be the gentle giants of the reptiles. They do range in size, temperament, and coloration. I have found them to be rewarding pets. The Colombian is my biggest, and he is arox 8 feet and 35lbs (16Kgs). While my Hogg will only reach 5 ½ feet and about 12lbs (5.5Kgs). The best part about my pets, I can travel for months, and they do just fine by themselves.

(if by chance you want to see pics of them... they are in the "Big Baby" personal album)

Fun Stuff

Beyond popular belief, I DO have other hobbies and interest besides traveling, snakes, and concerts, clubbing and girls. Some of these are Fly-fishing, Camping, Golfing, and surrounding myself around good people. If I told you anything more, I would have to kill you

Critics and comments:

If you got sumpt’n to say, then say it. I want to hear it… the Good the Bad & the Ugly. If you don’t got sumpt’n to say, well, then do the next best thing; make up some bullsh!t and send it my way.
